Before: The bricks were so badly spalled that the only solution was to rebuild the entire chimney with new brick. |
After: The chimney was salvaged. Note the close brick match to the original. |
Before: The upper portion of this chimney was “fanning” (bricks were displaced in the shape of a fan) so it needed to be rebuilt. |
After: The upper portion was rebuilt with salvaged brick (per customer’s request) so you would not see a difference between the old and new brick. |
Before: Bricks were actually missing on the top of this chimney. |
After: The top part of the chimney was rebuilt. Again, note the close brick match to the original. |
Before: This entire chimney was riddled with crazed and spalled brick. |
After: The entire chimney had to be rebuilt with new masonry units that could withstand the harsh temperatures. |
Before: This chimney had missing and spalled brick in addition to severely eroded mortar joints. |
After: The paint was removed using chemicals, all defective bricks were replaced and the chimney was tuckpointed completely. |
Before: This chimney had never been tuckpointed before. Notice how washed out the mortar joints are. |
After: Tuckpointing was performed on the entire chimney using a tooled mortar joint. |
No chimney is too large for ARROW. This chimney was extremely difficult to rig and work on due to its intricate design and placement but the result was a complete success. |
